The Overlord of the Asante Kingdom, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II has assured the Vice President and Presidential Candidate for the ruling New Patriotic Party, His Excellency Dr Alhaji Mahamadu Bawumia of his unflinching spiritual support as he journeys towards the Presidency.
The King, who described the Vice President as his humble son, said he would continue to pray for him till the elections.
The Asantehene gave the assurance when the Vice President and his entourage paid a courtesy call on him at the Manhyia Palace on Wednesday as part of his 3-day tour to the Ashanti Region.
“You have always been a humble son, power has not changed you at all, continue to be humble and serve. I am assuring you of my spiritual intervention for you till the day of the elections ” His Royal Majesty promised.
The Vice President received a rousing welcome in the Ashanti Region as he wrapped his campaign tour to the 16 regions.
The unprecedented reception from residents of the Ashanti Region has meanwhile sent shivers down the spines of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
